Late last year I bought a Mk4 R32 engine which was going to be turbocharged and dropped into my Polo GTI as part of a major project. As I changed my plans and decided to sell the Polo the R32 engine is now surplus to my needs.
This is the 3.2L V6 from a Mk4 R32. At some point prior to me buying it the engine was stripped down, the cylinders were honed and the pistons and valves cleaned up. I have no idea why the engine was stripped down but as I was planning on upgrading all the internals anyway to deal with forced induction that wasn't an issue.
I've had the block and head checked by my VW mechanic and there are no cracks or other issues we can see; a couple of fluid pipes on the outside of the block have been bent slightly but that's all.
The engine came with a box of new gaskets (for the head and exhaust manifold), the intake manifold including throttle body, exhaust manifold and down pipe and some other bits & pieces. Basically if it's in the photos below then it's included with the engine, and if you can't see something specific let me know and I'll take another look through the parts.
We obviously never got around to rebuilding the engine so I make no guarantees that it will run once reassembled, but that said my mechanic could not see any issues that would prevent it from running and I wouldn't have bought it if it was just going to be a boat anchor. I strongly recommend you inspect it for yourself if you're interested.
I'm looking for around $2500 for everything. The engine is located in the ACT.
If you have any questions please let me know.
